These GorillaPods truly are incredibly versatile and useful things!

A delightful new EP from the wonderful Martina Pisano πŸ˜πŸ‘ πŸ”ŠπŸŽ§ mpisano.bandcamp.com/album/piano-... Mixing a track and album mastering by me.

After 12.5 years of dedicated and gruelling practice at speed walking, I believe I have today reached the pinnacle of my abilities. Pretty proud of this!

Superb news! Congratulations to the fabulous Emer Landers and everyone involved πŸ‘πŸŽ‰πŸ˜ [ score mixing ] β€œDelighted to share that Eldritch Karaoke was selected as the Winner of the Jury Prize for Best Sound & Music at the Horror Underground Film & Screenplay Festival in Canada! πŸ†β€

Popped into this excellent place earlier to do a guest lecture and couple of seminars covering basic mixing and mastering. Thanks to the students for engaging along the way and @joannakarselis.bsky.social for the invite as part of her Film & Composition course 😁 (It was really sunny too!!)

Just some seals taking a spot of time out in their day near St Davids, Wales, on Saturday. 🦭

Fantastic latest Resonance track from the superb Marcus Hedges along with DEVMO. Mastering by me. Posted @withregram β€’ @resonance_musicverse β€˜My World’ by @marcus_hedges_composer and @devmomusic is out now on all platforms as we welcome the next Resonance character, Alia.

Looking back over the years that I've been donating blood (which began because my friend had an appointment and I said "Why not, I'll do it too"), the thing that truly strikes me is how easy it was to make donating a habit due to the amazing and dedicated NHS staff.

Loved this song in high school so I wanted to see if I could still remember the solo. Took a sec but it all came back haha. πŸ˜…πŸŽΈβœ¨

Very interesting read. Definitely needs more research to understand what might be happening with people’s hearing and perceptions with so much use of noise cancelling headphones. What do you think? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A superb new track from the fantastic Sam Paul Robinson of NO DEAL DISCO!! 😁 πŸ”ŠπŸŽ§πŸ‘‰ youtu.be/jl3RptXRpFw [ mastered by me ]

Having a bit of Logic play time this evening 😁

SCL nominee, @nainitadesai.bsky.social, speaks on composing for the duality of love and grief. She is nominated for the Outstanding Original Score for Interactive Media for her work on the Tales of Kenzera: Zau. RP @_the_SCL #thescl #sclny #sclnashville #sclawards #nainitadesai #ZAUTheGame

Whilst putting many pairs of earplugs to good use they can get into a slightly less than optimal state by collecting stuff from our ear canals (you didn’t need pictures of that!). Thankfully, a nice dip in hydrogen peroxide & rinse & they’re ready to fight another day against noisy environments 😁

Thank heavens for the Beevers. Getting stuff done! Are the UK Gov talking with our Beever Building Consortium to get projects sorted here? www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...

Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock. If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.

Another lil music journey for a particular commission I wrote. From acoustic to electronic haha. πŸŽΈπŸŽΉπŸ˜…

β€œAll Heil President Musk!!” with The Lincoln Project. youtu.be/8QXQWHdSMcM He’s such a jolly lovely fella ain’t he!

Latest in the blog! This marvellous musical collection 😊 www.musiklab.co.uk/blog/ Happy I double checked before posting as autocorrect had changed it to blob! 🀭

Intermundia have a terrific new release with their album CLEPSYDRA: NOVUM! www.musiklab.co.uk/clepsydra-no... [ mastered by me ]

A BIG thank you to the wonderful people of Salvation Studios in Brighton for hosting their gathering last night. What a truly stunning venue with so much flexibility for recording! πŸ”—πŸ‘‰ www.salvationstudios.co.uk Popped along with my very good friend Marcus Hedges and met some fantastic people 😁

Hey friends - I'll be at Guildford Games Festival next Friday, on a panel about getting into game audio. Come and say hello, it'll be fun! I'll talk about passion projects, mid-life crises, second careers and other fun things - definitely a different perspective :) @guildfordgames.bsky.social

Catching up with some TV watching this evening and finally hearing the superb music of Chris Roe in the stunning AIRBORNE series from SKY Nature. Knowing the music so well after mixing it, it's an absolute delight to see what visuals Chris had crafted his music to. Just fantastic! [ score mixing ]

Out now to caress your ears is this superb soundtrack from the excellent Alex Parsons The King of the Apocalypse doc explores the American militia movement linked to the January 6th riots. Listen here www.musiklab.co.uk/king-of-the-... and wherever you stream your music 😁 [ mastered by me ]

35 tracks in 1 hour and 5 minutes of gorgeous soundtrack music left the studio today. Available sometime soon... possibly in the near future, sometime... You'll know when I know 😁 [mastering]

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment

Enjoying this wonderfully written book by Elinor Cleghorn. Whilst listening to Hanako Footman, I do have to stop myself from reacting with β€œHa!” or laughing at the stupidity of the crap that women’s health has endured over history.

A studio can’t have too much lighting so have added this little thing πŸ’‘πŸ˜

A thoroughly enjoyable and creative soundtrack by Hannes de Maeyer for The Couple Next Door πŸ‘ released by Silva Screen Records. πŸ”ŠπŸŽ§πŸ‘‰ open.spotify.com/album/5y6mak... and wherever you stream your music 😁 [ mastered by me ]

By the book’s description, looks like Bishop Budde is living what she preaches πŸ‘ www.eden.co.uk/christian-bo... β€œβ€¦shows how everyday choices call us to push past fears and act bravely when it countsβ€¦β€œ

Walkies!!

I’ve requested my music be removed from Spotifyβ€”only Spotify. It will still be available on all other streaming platforms. I no longer care how popular Spotify is. It’s an evil company with deeply artist-unfriendly policies I refuse to stand by. The best way to support my music is on #Bandcamp.

Looking back over past projects at the start of the year with yet more website updates (and how the flip are we this far into January already??) and reminding myself of how lucky I am to be doing what I do with such wonderful people and their music 😊 Priceless! www.musiklab.co.uk/credits/

The inner workings of Musk's mind... "wonder what I can get away with today [childish chuckle] Oh, oh, yeah, let's try this" βœ‹ "Anything? Nope. Reeaally? Sure? Haha, I can get away with anything. Mwahahaha!! Fuck you little people!! I AM THE MAAAAAN!"

Another outstanding track from Marcus Hedges for his super Resonance universe πŸ‘πŸ˜ πŸ˜ŠπŸ”ŠπŸŽ§πŸ‘‰ youtu.be/68nvtcZfjsw [ mastered ]

A little light Monday morning read. #goodluckamerica #andeveryoneelse

In the middle of catching up with website updates. Fantastic to see everything that Intermundia and I have done together to-date. Lots more to come!! www.musiklab.co.uk/credits/inte...

Your podcast niche is your superpower πŸ’ͺ Suzy Chase, podcast host, explains why narrowing your focus is key: "When you find your niche, you find your community, your listeners, your people."

1 week to go before the next fantastic Resonance track drops from Marcus Hedges!! Pop over to the website to discover the characters and their individual tracks! πŸ˜πŸ‘‰ www.resonance-universe.com [ mastered ]

Time to record some room ambience for a short film with this handy nose attachment. #mixing

Absolutely delightful music for this soundtrack from the wonderful @thomrobson.bsky.social πŸ‘πŸ˜ [ mastered ] πŸ”ŠπŸŽ§πŸ‘‰ open.spotify.com/album/3yMFFm...
